They're expecting Lake Charles to maybe get an inch. I'm not expecting even that.
Honestly, this is being way overblown, IMO. This always happens with winter events.
Seems like when they expect it, it never happens. When they don't, like this past week, we get hammered.
Meteorologists here forecast winter weather like Louisiana people drive in winter weather

my copy/paste with small explanation, maybe rds can elaborate.
This is the latest GFS model. It is only one model of many used to predict the weather. It is showing 4-5 inches of snow depth for Southeast Louisiana. For the last system that came through a couple days ago, this model didn't show anything happening at all.

7-8 inches of snow in my part of SC? 
This place will be a chaotic hellhole if this happens.

where do you mean will miss it? 3 inches in this area coupled with the ice would cripple the area..

According to that map. I'm suppose to get 20 inches. My arse that happens. But there's already like 3 ft so who knows

Doesn't matter here. One inch or one foot has the same effect. Grocery stores are already running out of bread & batteries.

I don't know anything about the algorithms that InstantWeather uses for their snow maps. I do know that surface snowfall maps are pretty inaccurate, esp. since most use some default water-to-snow ratio. Snow depth maps are even more questionable.
I noticed that on the 18z InstantWeahter snow maps that the "snowfall" and "snow depth" maps don't jive at all
Their algorithms might count sleet as snow and be including that in the "snow depth" map. There really isn't anyway to tell what the snowfall will look like without looking at the forecast soundings and figuring some snow ratios. Typically in this type of setup, the best snow will be on the northern fringe of the precip shied unless the cold air over performs and is deeper than expected.

I'm seeing 2 -4 inches for Lafayette ... am I nuts? I did go for a run this am -- lack of oxygen??

I guess this is really going to happen this time. We only had a very cold rain in S. Lafourche last week.
Tuesday Night Freezing rain, possibly mixed with sleet before midnight, then a chance of snow and sleet. Low around 25. Blustery, with a north wind 15 to 20 mph, with gusts as high as 30 mph. Chance of precipitation is 80%. New ice accumulation of less than a 0.1 of an inch possible. Little or no snow accumulation expected.
